11.11 Arm broken and killed Maozi (above)
Ning Yu soon 'felt' out the rules, every time he went out to commit a crime at night, the leader would choose brothers who were ruthless and cruel. Those who didn't dare to take action in normal times, and dragged their feet when doing things, generally didn't have the opportunity to go out for "practice". Ning Yu was clear that if he didn't have the opportunity to go out, he wouldn't even have the chance to witness the gang's modus operandi, scope of operations, or even know where he was currently located. Although they trained every day, the training grounds were also dark rooms without sunlight, and they had no idea what was going on outside.
The problem was that the boss seemed to be ignoring his existence, treating him as a mere errand boy. He made up his mind to change this external image.
This morning, Ning Yu stood beside Tou'er early and said with a flattering tone: "Big brother, during solo practice today, let me go up, okay?"
The boss looked at him in surprise and said, "Kid, with your build, if you want to 'mess' with my brothers, I'm afraid you'll lose a layer of skin."
Ning Yu wasn't unaware of the danger within, those burly men whose weight was more than twice his own, were all incredibly powerful evil gods. To spar with them one-on-one, it wasn't just a matter of strength, but also courage and audacity. He pretended to be nonchalant as he said: "Big brother, don't underestimate me, no matter who it is, I dare to challenge them."
His words sounded very provocative, and before the leader had a chance to speak, one of the men spoke up. His tone was clearly contemptuous. "You little brat, if you dare to fight me one-on-one, if I lose to you, then you can do whatever you want."
Ning Yu took a look and saw that the speaker was none other than 'Mao' Zi, who was known as one of the top ten henchmen. He knew that Mao Zi was not a good person, and it was said that he had killed three people so far and robbed countless others, making him one of the most notorious cold-blooded killers in the gang. When committing crimes outside, as long as someone's life fell into his hands, he would never show mercy. Therefore, he was one of the authorities here and also one of the reasons why everyone feared him. In a sense, Ning Yu had long hated Mao Zi, who had committed countless evils, and if they were outside, Ning Yu might have already taken action. But it was different here, as Mao Zi had the upper hand in terms of timing, location, and human resources. Ning Yu himself did not yet have the status or power to confront him. If there was no leader present and this wasn't a formal one-on-one training session, Ning Yu might not have been able to avoid being taken care of by Mao Zi. But now it was different, as long as he proposed a one-on-one training in public, even if he couldn't win against Mao Zi, he would still gain the respect of the leader and other men, which would help him lay the groundwork for his eventual escape. His words had already reached this point, so there was no turning back.
The boss looked at him and asked: "Little guy? Are you telling the truth?"
Ning Yu patted his chest and said loudly: "A real man's word is like a runaway horse, once spoken it cannot be caught."
The boss said in surprise: "Huh, didn't expect that you little guy still has some 'blood' character. Alright, big brother will fulfill your wish today."
"Look at you, kid," Mao said with disdain. "You can still back down if you regret it. If you're scared, just crawl past me and I'll let you off."
Ning Yu's eyebrows were raised, and he clasped his fists together saying: "Maozi Ge, please!"
This temporary venue has never been so lively. Everyone watched the two people with disproportionate physiques like a monkey show. One was tall and strong, the other weak and frail. The two started fighting without realizing it, 'Mao' grabbed Ning Yu with one hand and threw him to the wall, where he bounced back. The crowd burst into laughter.
Nothing.
